BO and RIR?

[havi]

I have two of each: BO, RIR and EE. When should they start to lay eggs? Ive heard different stories. Some say 4 months others say not until 7. Right now they are about 10 weeks old and I was just curious when I should start to see eggs.

My RIRs usually started around 21 weeks...Buff Orps were 23 or 24 weeks......never had EEs so can't help with those.....

The RIR and EEs should start around 5-6 months old. The BO will start about a month later then the others. This is also dependent on the bloodlines and how they have been kept.
